DESCRIPTION: Methods will be developed and evaluated for measuring and predicting hearing aid outcomes. The predictions will be derived from experimental data obtained at the time the hearing aid is fitted. It is planned to develop a profile of indicators that are predictive of successful outcomes. Several new outcome measures will be developed for inclusion in this profile. A predictive profile of this type would allow consumers to make an informed choice when investing in a hearing aid and would know what to expect after the hearing aid has been fitted. Knowing what to expect is an important consideration and would reduce substantially the dissatisfaction that occurs when the hearing aid does not meet expectations.

描述：将开发和评估测量和预测助听器结果的方法。这些预测将根据佩戴助听器时获得的实验数据得出。计划制定一份能够预测成功结果的指标概况。将制定几项新的成果衡量标准，以纳入这一简介。这种类型的预测性配置文件将使消费者在投资助听器时做出明智的选择，并知道助听器安装后会发生什么。知道会发生什么是一个重要的考虑因素，这将大大减少助听器达不到预期时所产生的不满。
